Jan 26, 2010, The Courage to be Love in Action
Free tele-session on 1/26, 8 pm Eastern.
Optional Prep:
-1- Identify an action that you do or would like to do. Something that you care about that is meaningful for you.
It doesn’t need to be pleasant or ideal. For example: I am thinking about my family during the holidays. It could be family, your art, hobby, friends, work – anything that has significance for you.
-2- Now that you have your action: What are the conditions that you have around it? How does it need to be so that you are getting what you want? Ask yourself, What do I want from this action?
In the example above, I would have answered:
- I want to feel welcomed
- I want to have interesting conversations that at times might include me and my work…at least once (a year? ever?).
- I do not want to be in arguments about politics, the environment, health care, or the economy
- I want dignity, not shame, about my life path
- MOST of all, I want warmth towards and from my family
Your turn. List what you want and realize…these are conditions that you place.
NOW what? How do you get to unconditional love? After all, you want what you want. What is wrong with wanting warmth (for example)?
-3- Love in Action is recognizing your conditions and letting them go. If you need something from another person…like I needed from my family, then let it go. Realize, in a very SPECIFIC way, that they cannot, or have not, or will not, or may never ever, give you what you need, or be who you need, or help you feel how you need.
Honor what you “need” and want. Accept that you need and want it. Recognize that you feel wounded, sad, angry, what EVER. Grieve that you don’t have it and then LET IT GO. Shrug. Accept it.
Imagine it is now the end of time and shrug… well, THAT didn’t happen…oh well. Let them off the hook. Let them be who they are, and who YOU are. They just are, you just are. When you let them off the hook, AMAZINGLY, they will release and be able to move toward you. They…it…you…what ever fits for your situation.
Realize that there is something like this statement running your energy:
I need _________(fill in the blank) to do ___________ so I can feel ____________.
(Example: I need my family to approve and understand what I do so I can feel proud of myself.)
Love in Action is when you do what matters to YOU just because it matters to you. And because it matters enough to do it – no matter what the world reflects back to you. You do it and in the doing of it you find out what matters to you, and maybe best of all
You find out what stops you.
The courage part? The courage part of love in action is how much truth is required to get there.
